The Predicates
object contains one Predicate
element for each ByteMatchSet, IPSet, or SqlInjectionMatchSet object that you want to include in a RateBasedRule
.
A friendly name or description for the metrics for a RateBasedRule
. The name can contain only alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9), with maximum length 128 and minimum length one. It can't contain whitespace or metric names reserved for AWS WAF, including "All" and "Default_Action." You can't change the name of the metric after you create the RateBasedRule
.
The field that AWS WAF uses to determine if requests are likely arriving from single source and thus subject to rate monitoring. The only valid value for RateKey
is IP
. IP
indicates that requests arriving from the same IP address are subject to the RateLimit
that is specified in the RateBasedRule
.
The maximum number of requests, which have an identical value in the field specified by the RateKey
, allowed in a five-minute period. If the number of requests exceeds the RateLimit
and the other predicates specified in the rule are also met, AWS WAF triggers the action that is specified for this rule.
A unique identifier for a RateBasedRule
. You use RuleId
to get more information about a RateBasedRule
(see GetRateBasedRule), update a RateBasedRule
(see UpdateRateBasedRule), insert a RateBasedRule
into a WebACL
or delete one from a WebACL
(see UpdateWebACL), or delete a RateBasedRule
from AWS WAF (see DeleteRateBasedRule).
